Indian woman track star disqualified on account of ‘nads

Santhi Soudarajan, 25, was made to take the gender test in Doha, Qatar after her victory.

The test reports sent to the Indian Olympic Association on Sunday say said she “does not possess the sexual characteristics of a woman,” The Times of India reported. The test was administered by a medical commission set up by the games’ organizers.

Admittedly, it’s a little easier for women to pass as men in India than it is elsewhere.

The gender test isn’t mandatory, by the way. They can ask you to take one if they have reason to believe you’re not, um, “qualified” for the event.

He’s about as passable as the Duke Lacrosse lying accuser’s “cousin Jakki” (real name Clyde Young)…lmao. This is the same she-male that convinced Greta Van Susteren and local affiliate WRAL that the lying accuser already had her non-Duke Lacrosse baby. At least (s)he has the balls to lie on national TV.

[The official] said the test revealed more Y chromosomes than allowed.
Women have no Y chromosomes!

Um, none that they personally made, anyway. How to put this delicately… I think the standard test in the Olympics used to involve a cotton swab inside the mouth to obtain genetic material. Do I need to go any further?

Reading the articles in the Indian media gives me the impression that Santhi Soudarajan may not be a surgical transexual but instead has androgen insensitivity syndrome or a related disorder. Androgens are literally what make generic fetuses into fully functioning males. Without androgens, or in the cases where the developing fetus’ body is insensitive to them, the fetus continues to develop as a female, though it is genetically male. The external genitalia looks female. The problem is not recognized until puberty, but there are undeveloped testes in their bodies, not ovaries.

Chandler has broken up with a woman named Joan because of her large nostrils, reminding Joey of his breaking up with someone because of her large Adam’s apple. When the gang try to tell Joey that women don’t have Adam’s apples, he starts to panic, but they finally tell him it’s not true (“That was a good one. For a second there, I was like, “whoa.””)

Joey: [after talking about Chandler being picky with girls] Chandler, I understand you. I mean, this one time, I went out with this girl, she had the biggest Adam’s apple!
